[GMW #1532] Each UN World Conference On Over Population In Poor Countries Should Be Accompanied One One Over Consumption And Waste In The Rich Countries

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500

~ Idea 34 ~ 13 August 1994

Each UN World conference on overpopulation in the poor countries should be accompanied by a world conference on overconsumption and waste in the rich countries.

While the poor countries should listen to the UN and adopt policies reducing the excessive growth of their populations, the rich countries where people use thirty times more resources than the people in the poor countries must adopt more simple and frugal lives, avoiding by all means wasteful, harmful and unnecessary consumption.

Our life styles must radically change if this Earth and humanity are to survive.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 18 Of Education (Inducation)

I would like to see these two sentences displayed in all schools on Earth:

"We die on the day our lives cease to be illuminated by a wonder beyond all reason."
Dag Hammarskjöld

"The tragedy of life is not death, but what we let die inside of us while we live."
Norman Cousins

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world -- that is the myth of the "atomic age" -- as in being able to remake ourselves.

[GMW #1531] World Conference On Advertising, Marketing, Packaging, Built-in Obsolescence To Recommend Appropriate Policies And Action

[GMW #1531] World Conference On Advertising, Marketing, Packaging, Built-in Obsolescence To Recommend Appropriate Policies And Action

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500

~ Idea 33 ~ 12 August 1994

In order to cope with the staggering waste and pollution which endanger this planet, a world conference on advertising, marketing, packaging and built-in obsolescence should be held to assess the magnitude of the problem and recommend appropriate policies and action.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 18 Of Education (Inducation)

We do not see the world as it is.

We see it as we are taught to see it.

The same is true of our view of humanity, of the universe, of history and of ourselves.

But in reality we are the world, we are humanity, we are the universe, we are the past, the present and the future.

"The greatest homage to truth is to use it."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

[GMW #1530] Global Attention To Insufficient Consumption, Over Consuption, Staggering Waste, Harmful Consumption Taxing Public Health & Earth's Resour

[GMW #1530] Global Attention To Insufficient Consumption, Over Consuption, Staggering Waste, Harmful Consumption Taxing Public Health & Earth's Resources

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500

~ Idea 32 ~ 11 August 1994

Public service is overweighted in favor of production and business. Greater attention must be given to the consumption side of humanity: insufficient consumption of many people, overconsumption and staggering waste by others, harmful consumptions unduly taxing the Earth's resources and public health.

A UN World Agency on consumption must be created with corresponding Ministries of Consumption in all countries. Like the International Labor Organization, the organization should have a tripartite representation: producers, consumers and governments.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 18 Of Education (Inducation)

Being a microcosm of the universe, of eternity, of our globe and of humanity, each individual has the capacity to encompass the universe, eternity, our globe and humanity.

Those who know this simple law are called saints or geniuses.

But in reality they are simply what every human is and should be educated to be.

[GMW #1529] Report World's Public Expenditures, National Budgets, Taxation And Reduce Duplications, Wastes, Tax Burdens

[GMW #1529] Report World's Public Expenditures, National Budgets, Taxation And Reduce Duplications, Wastes, Tax Burdens

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500

~ Idea 31 ~ 10 August 1994

The United Nations should reconstitute its early Fiscal Committee to study systematically and report on the world's public expenditures, national budgets and taxation, and give the world a clear, yearly picture of its priorities, allocations of resources, duplications, wastes and tax burdens on the various classes of society in all countries.

The world will be shocked when it will see the total of all national budgets and the incredible, unnecessary duplications existing between 185 governments.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 18 Of Education (Inducation)

To be a human means first and foremost to be a member of the human family. Instead of that, national education makes us narrow, national, planetarily irrelevant, often hostile and aggressive national beings.

Do not look for rest in any pleasure, because you were not created for pleasure: you were created for Joy. And if you do not know the difference between pleasure and joy you have not yet begun to live.

Thomas Merton

[GMW #1528] A Picture The Poorest, Most Suffering People On The Desk Of Each Public Servant - Is Work Devoted To Them? Will My Decision Benefit Them?

[GMW #1528] A Picture The Poorest, Most Suffering People On The Desk Of Each Public Servant - Is Work Devoted To Them? Will My Decision Benefit Them?

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500

~ Idea 30 ~ 9 August 1994

Each public servant, from the top of the world to the local level, should have on their desk a picture of the poorest, most suffering people and always ask these questions: Is my work devoted to them? Will my decision be of benefit to them?

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 18 Of Education (Inducation)

If all human brothers and sisters were educated rightly into the world, into the human family, into the universe and our global journey on this planet, then innumerable problems would be resolved, for most of them are human-made and due to wrong education.

True modern education must be concerned with the ultimate harmony between the human species and this planet.

Dear Mr. Muller,

My name is Steve. My specialty is "spiritual" economics.

I am currently writing a book on world peace. As an activist for grass roots organizations since 1971, I set up international relief organizations to become NGOs. I am currently reading your book "What War Taught Me About Peace" and am very enthralled with the work.

You resound my own feelings about things. I feel I have a command to plant those seeds that will harvest a future world without poverty and conflict, from the macro to the micro, addressing the political and ideological structures that present obstacles to world peace and prosperity.

I hope one day to be able to assist the secretariat with my knowledge.

I hope one day to make your acquaintance if possible, if for no other reason than to tell you what a wonderful asset you are to the world.

Best wishes to you, your family and your projects. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Steve
